The last work email I got was at 12:01 PM today. But about 10 minutes ago I started getting email notifications on my phone. However, when I look in my inbox, the emails I’m getting notifications on aren’t there.

Ironically - it’s the safety measures put in place that are preventing them from getting back online. Also, the traffic as they try to roll services back are killing them over again. It’s going to be interesting how they get out of this cycle…
It’s like quicksand.

You would expect there to be some kind of managed startup proceedure to recover from a blackout.
From my understanding, as they try to roll services back online to other regions, the impact of traffic hitting it is triggering safety measures and bring them down…almost like the safety measures to prevent a DDOS are shutting systems down despite it being real traffic, because so much is hitting each service at the same time.
They can’t turn that off either, because if someone does actively try to DDOS or hack them during it, (which happens around 20,000 times per day to MSFT, it would frick up the whole thing

Oh, good. Maybe the others will arrive at some point. Maybe by morning it will be up and running again.

I can’t load old emails nor open any attachments on my outlook
You should be able to in the iOS app of Outlook, or at least I am.

Looks like they are having some success in local regions, they aren’t killing services with traffic.
Either it will be back up nationwide in the next 30 mins or they are fricked and it’s going to take a much bigger effort into the night.

Have we tried unplugging, waiting 10 seconds and then putting the plug back in again?

Ionically IT departments can’t send out notice of the outage to employees.
They can through TEAMS. That’s how we communicated through this ordeal.

For those celebrating not having to answer emails…it’s not like they won’t be there whenever things come back online
I bet people aren’t sending me much right now

So like at what point here is there doubt this isn't up when we wake up tomorrow. I csn see this turning into a massive deal in a hurry.

Yes
We also have been getting messages that just appear on everyone’s computers. Not sure how they are doing that
